Keep Going: Sunday -- Another Family Gathering and lots of good food

So on Sunday, Papa Koo celebrated his birthday with the family. His birthday was actually on Monday, but since everyone was going back to work or school from the long holiday weekend, we celebrated Sunday evening. The party went really well. Lots of food was cooked as usual. The meat this time was beef, and it was wonderful. One of the aunts was in charge of preparing the food this time, and she did a pretty good job.

The cake was amazing as well -- Sweet Potato Cake from Paris Baguette. I had never tasted that before, and it was amazing. Thankfully, I visited the sauna in the bathhouse twice that day. Sunday was my lazy day -- watched UFC, studied Korean, and read a book, and really didn't leave the house much at all. I made it a point to really not want to do anything at all.

One of the aunts missed the party, since she gave birth a few days earlier than expected. The baby is at home safely with mother now, but she didn't even weight 2 lbs when she was born. Apparently they are just born smaller here.

I have some pictures that I'll put up of the aunts other child. He's a super cool kid. It's taken quite a while for the little guy to warm up to me though. A baseball, some ice cream, and a glass of milk did the trick though. Too bad his momma wasn't around, because he was surely missing her. I'm not sure how he's doing being big brother yet, but he'll be alright.

Monday didn't really consist of too much excitement. I took Woo Yeup and Eun Byeul to dinner at a really good pork restaurant. We went with Momma Koo, and Woo Yeup and split the cost of a pair of shoes for his day. I figured since the man has done a good bit for me, that I should pitch in as well. Momma Koo took the shoes home for us, and the three of us went to the gym together. We've had some pretty good bonding time lately. Sister Eun Byeul has really opened up, and she will be graduating from high school on Wednesday morning as well. Then she starts college maybe a month or so later. It's a little bit different here in that regard.

Anyway, here are a few pictures of little Dong Won.
